Located in the Heart of the Ozarks, America’s #1 theme park offers unique rides and water attractions that are the perfect way to keep cool, have fun, and enjoy those last sun-soaked days together.

Summer in the Ozarks can be sizzling, and our variety of water rides are just what your family needs to stay refreshed. Whether you’re thrill-seekers or just looking to get drenched, we’ve got it all! Mystic River Falls is sure to leave a historic splash on your day at The City, featuring the “tallest drop in the Western Hemisphere!” After your raft takes a ride down the four-and-a-half story ramp, you’ll leave feeling exhilarated and ready for more!

This traditional log flume ride starts with a peaceful exploration but reaches ultimate heights, climbing five stories and ending with an extreme splashdown that will drench everyone nearby! It’s an all-American soaking your kids won’t forget.

Don’t forget to explore The Fire District, where you can cool off with some splash pad fun and keep the kids entertained.
